Four entire days without updating mon blog. Errrghhh... I feel so guilty... 

For my animation class, I drew some tonal drawings... but I forgot to take photos of them before I turned them in. >___>; So uh, whoops? Dunno when I'll get them back, but that's okay... I need to try making myself do more tonal drawings anyways (time to whip out le gouache XD). 

And in my physical notebook, I've been TRYING to will myself to more and more leg drawings. I'm still stuck on memorizing how them under layer calf muscles work... 

Enjoy some doodles.



For the last two sketches, I feel lazy for basically leaving them in empty white space... Need to brave myself into integrating them into environments - otherwise all those horrible attempts at making them would be for not!

A break from studies... some doodles I did a few days ago~

I drew um... stuff. >__>; Need I say more?

I made a doodle design thing of some random characters. I had more in my physical sketchbook, but... Imma just put these digital ones in. XD

LEG STUDIES. They make me CRY. They are SO hard. >__< I'm going to have to add this to my list of MUST get better.




these were imaginary legs that I did before starting the study to see what I perceive the legs to be.


This is an experimental sketch I did earlier today in my front yard for class. The teacher wanted us to do an 11x14 sketch in any medium. The word experimental was used because I decided to mix pastel and gouache. P: It turned out very strange... I am sooo bad at traditional painting, too. Siiiggghhh...

Photo of my front yard. What makes me mad about plein air works is that the sun keeps moving and changing the light! ;____;
Here is the complete version of the graphite rendering project. I'm surprised at how well I managed to pull off the head of the horse, actually! BUT - I obviously wasn't squinting enough or trusting the source material enough because the barrel part of the horse has illogically spotty lighting on it. =___=
